La France à l'heure allemande

by Philippe Burrin

From 1940 to 1944, the French adapted in a multitude of ways to the extraordinary predicament of life under the domination of Nazi Germany. Some joined the resistance, some actively curried favor with the conquerors, and others adjusted in small ways to the new regime. France Under the Germans is the definitive study of that period, the choices made by ordinary French citizens, and their degree of complicity with the Nazis.
